Issue: games-emulation/dolphin-5.0_p20220520-r1 adds -Werror flag on its own.
Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: dash_tinderbox)

NOTE:
(DASH-SYSTEM) in the summary means that the bug was found on a machine that runs /bin/sh as dash but this bug MAY or MAY NOT BE related to dash.
-Werror is not recommended for releases and should always be disabled when encountered in build-logs, because there are numerous cases where this breaks without purpose.

The -Werror came from gtest which was unvendored in https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=261d61f1693a662bae830afcf504b008d85cc4db
